Well, this shows that you can beta test all you want, 24 participating sites and all that, and you're still bound to find a serious problem in the released code. I have a fix for that which has been tested between here and UGA. I await Valdis's report on whether or not it fixes the problem he experienced with his local list (Valdis, I mean FIX17F*2*). If everything is ok I will distribute the fix tomorrow due to the impact this problem can have on the network (anything I make available from LISTSERV@SEARN gets installed, in the best case and allowing 2-3 weeks, by 25% of the sites).
